Baked Onion Rings - Lower Fat than Fried Onion Rings

Baked Onion Rings - one of my favorite snack recipes, full of flavor and crunch, not calories. Prepare as a dairy or pareve recipe.

Ingredients for Baked Onion Rings:

• 1/4 cup oil, divided into two parts
• 2 large Vidalia or Spanish Onions
• 1 1/2 cups buttermilk (dairy) or for pareve dish, use pareve soymilk or 2 lightly beaten large eggs plus enough water to make 1 1/2 cups
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1/2 tsp. black pepper
• 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 1 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/2 - 1 tsp. cayenne powder(to taste)
• 1 1/2 tsp. paprika
• 1 1/2 cups bread crumbs (seasoned, if possible)
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, optional, omit for pareve dish

Place buttermilk (or pareve soymilk or egg mixture) in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. In a second bowl, place flour, garlic powder, cayenne powder and paprika. In a third bowl, stir bread crumbs, together with parmesan cheese, if desired.

Toss 5-6 rings into buttermilk mixture, then dip in flour mixture. Dip in buttermilk mixture for a second time and then coat with breadcrumbs. Arrange coated onions in a single layer on prepared baking sheets. If desired, spray or drizzle additional oil over the onions.

Bake in preheated oven 8-10 minutes, until golden on bottom. Turn over onions and continue cooking another 5-7 minutes until crispy. Serve and enjoy.

Serves: 4
